There’s a rumbling grumbling among some skiers surrounding the quality of trail grooming in Gatineau Park.
In that context the Ottawa Citizen headline “NCC to halt Gatineau Park trail grooming” might give the wrong impression when in fact the newspaper story is only a bringing forward of the issue raised here Dec 17th, on the CBC website on Dec 22 that back country trails will not be groomed.
The NCC does plan to continue grooming primary and secondary trails.
The cards that GuideGatineau has begun distributing to promote the website are considered to be highly environmentally responsible due to the fact that the paper used is 100% recycled and is produced using energy from biofuels plus the ink is vegetable based.
